We left a drawer full of them in kitchen when wife sold her parents home they bought new 1932. Various beer & soda stamped ones mostly. In a Hoosier cabinet.

After years long search and recently confirming permanently discontinued I found a replacement at a uniform vendor.

For years I bought Sears Tall Size Field and Stream 65% polyester 35% cotton ripstop work shirts until discontinued and then Pennys Big Mac same work shirts until discontinued and then Carhart same until discontinued.

This week I found my size in the same material from a public safety and military uniform company by the name of Propper... so far so good and I expect the shirts to be as long lasting as the no longer made from Carhart etc.

Anyone else shop Propper for work wear?

Oh... I have been reaching out to Carhart and was told during pandemic not available... Last week I contacted business support to order 50 shirts and only then learned the s224 65/35 twill ripstop is no longer made...

So many good products seem to have hit end of life... and more problematic is tall sizes.

Iron Craft rotary cutter…couldn’t find much info on it even using the previous name “Titan Implements” which they changed because everyone confused it with “Titian Attachments”. For the price it couldn’t be beat with a stick in my local area and I looked over a lot of them in the dealers lot and everything looked well built/welded so took a gamble. Review to follow.

Too much stuff and nothing worthy of remembering. Just know I withdrew enough money for 2 weeks last Friday and spent it all this week.
